Hi Chuck
It's odd... there's no sign of a fuselage or tail in there... I wonder what it could be?...

Though those of us who have a passion for them don't think of the Flying Wings as Boeing products, today they are listed as such.
Right on Nige, that's the remains of a Northrop B-49, on the scrap heap, after they were ordered to be destroyed.
Over to you, Nige, for the next question.
Sam's guess was a good one based on the tail cone that is visible.
Rowan, you know me too well !!

My first thought exactly, Nige. If not a Tiger Moth then a Gypsy Moth

Nope, sorry Nigel and Chuck you're both wrong guess again

Hi there
That squared-off cockpit does look like a de Havilland - so how about just a plane Moth?

Hi Samantha
LOL! I think we need another clue! None of the cockpits I've looked at photos of have matched - which probably just means I'm thinking far too hard and making it more difficult than it need be!
